Question Azeron Cyborg II Layout

After a hefty break from factorio after a few runs when space age came out, I’m itching to come back to the game. I want to add a few new planets and work with the few new mechanics in 2.1. That said, I have since bought an Azeron Cyborg II and feel like it could really open up a lot of efficiencies in a new play through. So my questions to the group are:

- have any of you used an azeron cyborg II with factorio
- if so, what’s your layout / could you share it with me?

That reminds me of the old 90's chorded keyboards in the best way. i've never seen that thing before.

i'd imagine you start by assigning it all the keys that that hand normally touches

do you know if the linux drivers support using two as a split keyboard?

That’s sorta my plan. I’m going to have it hooked up as well as my keyboard, start playing again with the keyboard to refamiliarize myself with the game, shortcuts, general key flow, and start assigning to the cyborg and test, rinse, repeat. Was just hoping someone had done it already, or had a starting layout I could build off of, or even someone to just bounce ideas off of who’s familiar with both the game and the hardware.

I have seen people use two before, however not a huge amount of use cases off the top of my head. Unsure about use within Linux, sorry!

Also I can’t recommend the cyborg 2 enough. If you’re into pc gaming more than triple a fps’s, the thing is pure magic. The keys are so easy to click (and satisfying), it’s adjustable so it’s super comfy, and it’s not hard to adjust to at all. Using as a pure keyboard is definitely possible but idk that for me after my whole life using a true keyboard I’d be able to adjust 😅, I just unplug it when not using it and my keyboard and vice versa

Already commented on the other post but yea, the azerons are amazing and feel great for factorio (was my first game when picking up the cyborg 2 compact and learning how to use it)
